http://www.advogato.org/person/ewan/diary.html?start=7Today was about <b>finishing</b>. I put to bed a power
point presentation (hmmmmmm. When do I move to Kpresenter?)
and a latex document.
<p> In addition I worked on getting Wise2 2.1.22c out of
the door. Little bug fixes. Nice to get it out though
<p> There are some virtual contig bugs to be tracked down
inside Ensembl. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

http://www.advogato.org/person/ewan/diary.html?start=5It has been a day back to work and doing that "people thing"
that managers have to do. hey-ho.
<p> No code. Not one line. But I kicked off some scripts, and
learnt
about the command line tool "split"

http://www.advogato.org/person/ewan/diary.html?start=4Obessive browsing due to the fact that I have posted an
article.
Interesting to see what sort of effect this has on the
projects.
<p> Must do some ...serious... work today
<p> Zach Garner explained that he just thought I was worthy
of status. Two things I now want on advogato
<ul>
<li>Ability to message people somehow (otherwise what is
the point!)
<li> a search advogato box...
</ul>

http://www.advogato.org/person/ewan/diary.html?start=3Long haul from london to cambridge. Hacked a little bit more
on
the Wise2 "stripper" system for speed up. Nice little
recursive function in there. Not tested. Also - to take
advantage of it
I need to write something down in the Dynamite compiler. Oh
vey!
<p> Came into the house, and dan has left it like a tip! Geez.
Tidied the
front room. yes - you guessed it - the TV does not work and
I have some "proper" work to do. Hence work avoidance.
<p> Andrew Dalke kindly upgraded me to journeyman status as did
someone else (Zachgarner - who I don't know - did he just
browse
my home page? Or does he know me?) I am thinking about
posting
an article about bioinformatics. Might as well let people
know we
are out here. "Hacking the genome..."
<p> Better go for a run and see if I can burn out some of these
calories.

http://www.advogato.org/person/ewan/diary.html?start=2I got pissed off with no one certifying me so I put myself
as
a journyer. The very sensible system logged the upgrade but
then
did not change my status. Bugger. Waiting for someone
(andrew?)
do the right thing.
<p> Today I spent helping Barley (girlfriend) move her stuff in
preparation for going to central america. Lots of stuff to
move into
cellars etc. When she comes back we should be moving into a
flat
together in london. Whey-Hey! (I think!)
<p> Set up people with accounts on bio.perl.org which is always
nice
Another project gets started (bioperl-das-client) and people
are
much more likely to work together these days
<p> I have to finish off an article for IBM systems journal and
I've just
got another request for a vision style article. Hmmmm. I
must
be losing my coding touch.
<p> Ian should be on this. I'll suggest it to him.

http://www.advogato.org/person/ewan/diary.html?start=1Flew back from CA today. In the lounge (yup- I went
business.
Boy do I like consulting) I wrote a little more into the
virtual
contig rewrite I have to do.
<p> I also started on a project to speed one aspect of my code
up - it was much easier than I thought!
<p> Back in london. I wonder if there are any other bioperlers
or
bioinformaticians on advogato...

http://www.advogato.org/person/ewan/diary.html?start=0yes. This is my first entry. I wonder whether I will keep
this
up ;)
<p>
I am working over in the CA, wasting time before I track a
reasonably nasty bug in some old code. Well... &lt;sigh&gt; I had
better get around this.
